描述
isaac Bashevis Singer (1904–91) Is Generally Recognized As The Most Popular Yiddish Writer Of The Twentieth Century. His Widely Translated Body Of Work, For Which He Received The Nobel Prize In Literature In 1978, Is Beloved Around The World. But Although Singer Was A Very Public And Outgoing Figure, Much About His Personal Life Remains Unknown. In This Vivid Biography, Florence Noiville Offers A Glimpse Into The World Of This Much-loved But Persistently Elusive Writer.
Singer Was Greatly Influenced By His Early Years In Poland, With His Rabbi Father And Rationalist, Secular Mother. His Interest In Themes Of Faith And Dilemma Stem Directly From This Set Of Conflicts; He Bounced Back And Forth Between Revering And Fighting Orthodoxy. This Was Not The Only Paradox In His Life, However: This Man, Who Wrote Many Successful Children’s Books, Had Abandoned His First Wife And Only Son In Poland As The Nazis Began To Sweep Across Europe. His Novels And Stories Are Recognized For Their Mystical, Folkloric Tone And His Public Image Was That Of A Grandfather Or Uncle; But He Was Wracked With Self-doubt, A Womanizer, And, As Noiville Writes, A “modern Virtuoso Of Anguish, Inhibition, And Fiasco.”
Noiville Speaks To These And Other Paradoxes Surrounding Her Subject, Drawing On Letters, Personal Stories, Singer’s Own Autobiographies, And Interviews With Friends, Family, And Publishing Contemporaries. She Travels As He Did, From Poland To New York To Florida, Tracing His Journey From Penniless Immigrant To Nobellaureate. By Pursuing Singer’s Public And Private Past, She Rebuilds His Story And The Story Of The World He Wrote From: A Yiddish World, A Poland Removed From History By Nazi Germany.
publishers Weekly nobel Laureate I.b. Singer Created A Rich Imaginary World During An Emotionally Austere Childhood As The Son Of A Rabbi Absorbed In The Talmud And A Cold, Distant Mother. His Family's Stint From 1908 To 1917 On Krochmalna Street In Warsaw's Jewish Quarter, Where His Father Arbitrated Disputes, Celebrated Marriages And Granted Divorces, Gave Isaac A Front-row Seat To The Passionate Dramas Of Daily Life. This Period Was A Fount Of Inspiration For Singer Until His Death In 1991. Far More Complex Than The Media's Image Of The Impish Jewish Fabulist, Singer, As Noiville Shows, Was At Once A Calculating, Charming Womanizer And A Depressive Introvert Who Often Alienated Those Closest To Him, Including His Mentor And Older Brother Joshua, A Bestselling Novelist Who Invited Him To America And Got Him His First Commissions From The Jewish Daily Forward; Saul Bellow, Whose Brilliant Translation Of Gimpel The Fool Was Singer's Passport To Fame; And His Son, Israel Zamir, Whom He Abandoned In Poland At The Age Of Five. Drawing On Singer's Oeuvre As Well As Interviews With His Son And Various Peers And Collaborators, Le Monde Literary Critic Noiville Paints A Respectful, Worthy Portrait Of The Penniless Immigrant Who Became A Brilliant Writer.
